Bear and glasses checking in, how's everyone enjoying zelda or diablo?

Maybe we don't play those games! Why would you assume!?

But seriously, I haven't tried the new Zelda beacuse I'm still playing Breath of the Wild. And I've been playing Diablo: Original Sin 2, so I haven't gotten to Diablo IV, yet.

I bet you feel pretty silly for generalizing.

I hope no one takes this personally, it isn't, but this is the first thing that popped in to my mind reading this post.

I'm sorry. 😂

DearThief, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

It's not very exciting, but sinusitis. Three weeks in bed, unable to do anything to distract myself because moving/light/sound made it worse, sobbing from the pain despite maxing out on painkillers. Felt like my brain was trying to crawl out of my eye socket.

PupBiru, in How do I remove sticker residue from glass containers?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

orange oil is one i haven’t seen mentioned yet!

i haven’t tried olive oil and other similar oils like others have suggested, but there’s a product in my country that’s specifically sticky stuff remover (like label residue) and it’s made of orange oil

Wait... oranges have oil?! O.o

DasRubberDuck,

It's in the peels and has lots of the fruits flavour. All citrus have it, that's why you grind a bit of lemon peel into your food: It tastes way more lemony than the juice.

Bearded glasses guys need to get together and fight over the title of Most Average Bearded Glasses Guy. I am bald so I think I'm disqualified, or at least put in a different division.

I think I have a beard but I've lost my glasses. I'll have a look when I find them, but I already have my suspicions.

Dantastic, in Is Grammarly premium worth it?

If you have Microsoft Word, just use the built in spell and grammer check. It's far more capable these days and is very feature rich.
Another user pointed out how much worse you can make your writing using it. I had a peer in a group project put our work through Grammerly and mindlessly accept what it said to do and it ruined the writing.

Mind you, I've never been a fan of Grammerly and certainly don't understand how people could pay for it. And certainly would never be comfortable using it for free, because then they're data mining me.

aeternum, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

I got attacked by scorpions in my bed. Holy shit that was painful.

This is a little different than everything else here lmao, that's some scary shit

FlashZordon, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

Flipped over the front of my bike as a kid and knocked my two front teeth out. But it wasn't that part that hurt. It was when the dentist shoved them back into the hole. I about levitated out of the chair out of sheer pain.

brandacus, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

I had a bulging disc and one day I was laying on the couch and sneezed. I felt this pop in my back and the pain was indescribable. I started helplessly crying and yelling for help. After waiting in pain for 20 minutes, my gf brought me to the ER where I cried in the lobby for 8 hours straight waiting to be seen.

Turns out I herniated my disc. I went to PT for 6 months and have slight nerve damage to this day. Funny enough a new latex mattress saved me. I live pain free every day when before that was unthinkable.

JayGarrick, in Should we have a "!shittykbin" that would serve the purpose of all those shittyX subreddits on Reddit?

Yes! Looking forward to a m/ShittySysAdmin

InformalSnow, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

I get migraines, so I’m weirdly used to high levels of pain. I had one migraine so bad I vomited, fell asleep for about 6 hours, then woke up and kept vomiting uncontrollably. Ended up in the ER because I was puking straight bile. But as far as pain goes, not the worst.

When I was pregnant, they had to induce me. They try to keep you off an epidural as long as possible, but I was having contractions every 5 minutes while 0% dilated. Hurt like a bitch, and they wouldn’t let me lay in any comfortable position because the heart rate monitor wouldn’t register. But that wasn’t the worst.

I had a kidney stone impact in the lower part of my ureter. They had gone in to remove it but couldn’t because it was impacted and infected. So they placed a stent. The doctor said I must have been in a lot of pain before surgery. Didn’t feel a THING. The next day I felt fine. Went to work (desk job). Came home and laid on the couch. Over the course of an hour I started shivering uncontrollably and spiked a massive fever. I developed sepsis. I was in the hospital for 5 days. Still wasn’t the worst.

No, the worst was my third kidney stone which was apparently caught on scar tissue in my ureter. I was in so much pain I couldn’t think. I couldn’t answer questions. I couldn’t do anything.
